Orato is an online magazine that publishes articles, video, and audio from both veteran and amateur reporters eager to share their knowledge with a global community. Orato Correspondents relate their expertise, eyewitness accounts, and unique know-how by using the Web to amplify that perspective for an audience that wants to know how trends and activities on the world stage play out for the individual. While some consider this "soft news" when compared to traditional journalism, we find that an accurate, factual and verified, but more immediate, approach gives our audiences the best of both worlds - the macro and the micro point of view.
Articles on Orato will continue to find readers given that "evergreen" material offers historical context and makes sure that good information is never "out of print". Orato's 900 Correspondents are everywhere - some in the urban jungles, some in truly remote outposts that are a different kind of jungle altogether. Since Orato's launch in 2006, we have solicited coverage from people living the events that make headlines. Below are our Press Room Archives, articles both about us and about our new brand of journalism. If you want to know more, don't hesitate to surf the site, check out our FAQ and About Us pages, or send us an email. In the meantime, tell others about Orato and post an article, video or audio clip sharing your expertise or experience today.
